steering ram

[Southerneruk]

I need new seals for the steering ram, any one know where I can get these seals from

[Degens]

maybe my steering rack has it?

[Dieselman]

All the ps rams are the same, so any exchange one will do.

I believe the end rubber return gaiter is available, but can any more of the ram be disassembled?

[Southerneruk]

I know the rack can not be fully dismantled, I had tried, I thought I had a spare ram, but can not find it, but definitely have a leak though the seal

[Southerneruk]

Can you check for me Degens

[Dieselman]

The ram will have a small amount of allowable leak, which is collected and returned to the reservoir via the rubber collar, P/no 95640212

Item 8.

This is more than a small amount, it drips when not in use, think I might have damage it when doing that gaiter replacement

[Dieselman]

Where is it leaking from, a split return pipe fitting will leak a lot when not running, as the complete pipe empties.

[Southerneruk]

I have a drip on the ram push rod that connects to the end of the rack
looking at the rubber cover on the end of the rack, it does feel a bit on the hard side for rubber

[Dieselman]

The return gaiter is the active return from the cylinder, it doesn't create the seal for the rod. It sounds like you do indeed have a leaking ram.
